Second Chances Are Murder

By James D. A. Terry

My name's Case-Justin Case. Termination Agent for the Tin Can Communications Company. Sounds slick, right? Think again. The job involves more cord-cutting than cocktail parties, more dead weight than promotions-and lately, it's getting personal.

Telly Phonya, our District Manager, just turned up dead in a locked office. Clocks stopped. Phones fried. And topping the suspect list? Hugh G. Bear-my brother-from-another-mother and the guy who just stepped into Telly's freshly vacated seat. Coincidence? Maybe. But I don't trust coincidences. I dissect them.

Good thing I've got Notcho Dog-canine confidant, sarcasm specialist, and the real brains behind this two-species operation. With Notcho sniffing out the nonsense and my band of unofficial brothers backing the play, we're peeling back a case layered in lies, old grudges, and more misdirection than a magician with something to hide.

Second Chances Are Murder is a whip-smart mystery wrapped in dry wit, twisted loyalty, and just enough chaos to keep you guessing. If you're looking for a brozy* blend of noir grit, heart, and hound-look no further.

*Brozy: like cozy, but with more banter, a little blues, and a dog who probably deserves her own badge.
